The already rapidly expanding Marvel Rivals roster could easily challenge decade-old character-based games like League of Legends and Dota 2 if NetEase gets the chance to keep designing heroes, with the developers declaring “no character off limits” as they plumb the comic books depths for new releases.

With over 9,000 unique (and multiverse-adjacent) characters spread across 84 years of rich narrative history in the Marvel universe, NetEase certainty has its pick of the litter. And, even better, they definitely plan to use them, Marvel Rivals executive producer Danny Koo said recently in an interview with VG247. “No character’s off limits,” he declared. “We have to pick the ones who are fun to look at, different, [and] fun to play.”
